The Boston Celtics and the new-look Dallas Mavericks face off for the second and last time this season at TD Garden on Thursday. The Celtics are coming in on a four-game winning streak and have recently beaten the No.1 team in the NBA, the Cleveland Cavaliers, 112-105. All five starters of the championship-winning team played in the match between two of the best teams in the East. Jayson Tatum led the way with 22 points and Derrick White added 20 points. Kristaps Porzingis contributed 19, Jaylen Brown added 16 and Jrue Holiday chipped in 6 in limited minutes due to a right shoulder injury. The Mavericks are still winless post-Luka Doncic era. They have lost their last three games, including a 118-116 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers. Kyrie Irving shot 11 for 21 from the field to finish 32 points while Naji Marshall contributed 19 off the bench. Anthony Davis, the centerpiece of the trade package the Mavs received for trading Luka Doncic to the LA Lakers, was still unavailable to play due to an abdomen injury.

Our Boston Celtics vs Dallas Mavericks Prediction
Boston are 2-4 ATS in their last 6 games at home, but Thursday’s NBA Finals rematch with the Mavericks offer them a chance to cover. PJ Washington is still listed out, while Anthony Davis is a game-time decision. There’s a good chance the Celtics will miss Jrue Holiday because of pain in his shoulder, but Boston remains a formidable team with four of their starters available to play. Dallas are 1-8-1 ATS in their last 10 games against Boston. With the spread set at -10.5 points, the Mavs’ capacity to beat this double-digit spread will heavily hinge on the availability of Anthony Davis, who has already practiced with the team, according to reports. Our betting prediction for the Boston Celtics vs. Dallas Mavericks: Mavs will cover +10.5 points.
Prediction:
Dallas Mavericks will cover +10.5 points
